Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of building equipment, and in particular to a water-saving ceramic tile soaking device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, because tiles have many tiny pores on the back and are absorbent, they need to be soaked before installation. This allows the tiles to absorb water first, making them less likely to absorb moisture from the cement mortar during installation. This reduces the likelihood of gaps between the tiles and cement, hollow areas, or tiles falling off.

[0003] When soaking tiles, they are usually placed in a container filled with clean water. However, because dust often adheres to the surface of the tiles, soaking them will make the water cloudy. Therefore, the water in the container needs to be changed before soaking the next batch of tiles, resulting in a large waste of water resources. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to reduce water waste, this application provides a water-saving ceramic tile soaking device.

[0005] This application provides a water-saving ceramic tile soaking device, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A water-saving ceramic tile soaking device includes:

[0007] The immersion tank has an upward-facing opening, with the upper opening forming a feed inlet.

[0008] A conveyor chain transports the contents of the immersion tank.

[0009] A clamping assembly is provided, comprising multiple clamping assemblies distributed along the length of the conveyor chain; each clamping assembly includes a base, a support plate, and a clamping plate, wherein the support plate is connected to the conveyor chain and is used to support a ceramic tile; the base is connected to the support plate, and the clamping plate moves on the base in a direction approaching or away from the support plate to clamp the ceramic tile together with the support plate; the base has a guide member for moving the clamping plate towards the support plate, and both the support plate and the clamping plate have multiple water passage holes.

[0010] A drive assembly is connected to the conveyor chain to drive the conveyor chain to move each of the clamping assemblies in a reciprocating motion within the immersion tank, and to enable the clamping assemblies to move to the feed inlet.

[0011] The impurity removal component includes a circulation pipe, a power source, and an adsorption element. The two ends of the circulation pipe, which are far apart from each other, are connected to the immersion tank. The adsorption element is located inside the circulation pipe and is used to adsorb impurities. The power source cooperates with the circulation pipe so that the water in the immersion tank enters the circulation pipe, passes through the adsorption element, and then enters the immersion tank.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the tiles are fed into the inlet in conjunction with the clamping components. A conveyor chain drives the clamping components to move sequentially to the inlet for loading and unloading. As the conveyor chain moves the clamping components within the immersion tank, dust from the tiles falls into the water. The power source pumps water from the immersion tank into a circulation pipe, and then flushes it back into the immersion tank. This allows impurities and dust in the water to be adsorbed by the adsorption components, preventing the water in the immersion tank from becoming turbid during the soaking of multiple batches of tiles. This eliminates the need for frequent water changes and reduces water waste.

[0013] Optionally, a connecting frame is also included, which is connected between the support plate and the conveyor chain. The connecting frame includes a connecting seat connected to the conveyor chain and a rotating shaft connected to the support plate. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the connecting seat to drive the clamping assembly to rotate in the immersion tank.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping component can rotate in the immersion tank by rotating the rotating shaft and the connecting seat, thereby further enhancing the amplitude of the clamping component driving the tiles to agitate, so as to improve the cleaning effect of dust on the tiles.

[0015] Optionally, the immersion tank is provided with a guide rail extending along the moving path of the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft has a gear, and the guide rail has teeth that mesh with the gear along its own length.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating shaft rotates as the conveyor chain moves through the cooperation of gears and guide rails, thereby driving the rotation of the rotating shaft and improving the rotation effect of the clamping assembly.

[0017] Optionally, when the clamping assembly moves to the feed inlet, the support plate is located below the clamping plate, and the surface of the support plate is on a horizontal plane.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the surface of the support plate is at a horizontal plane at the feed inlet, which facilitates the placement of the tiles.

[0019] Optionally, the support plate is formed with a recess for placing the tile.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the sink can prevent tiles from sliding off the support plate when they are being fed, thus improving the stability of the tiles and protecting them.

[0021] Optionally, a mounting bracket is connected between the clamping plate and the guide member. The mounting bracket includes a movable seat and a mounting shaft. The movable seat is connected to the guide member and moves on the base in a direction close to or away from the bearing plate. The mounting shaft is rotatably connected to the movable seat and is connected to the clamping plate to drive the clamping plate to rotate. A locking member is provided between the bearing plate and the clamping plate to limit the rotation of the clamping plate and make the clamping plate parallel to the bearing plate.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping plate can be rotated relative to the carrier plate through the cooperation of the mounting shaft and the moving seat, thereby expanding the operable space when loading and unloading tiles, so as to improve the convenience of loading and unloading tiles. The setting of the locking part restricts the rotation when the clamping plate and the carrier plate clamp the tiles together.

[0023] Optionally, the locking member includes a locking plate disposed on the clamping plate. The bearing plate has a locking hole for the locking plate to pass through in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the bearing plate. When the locking hole engages with the locking plate, the clamping plate is parallel to the bearing plate.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the clamping plate relative to the bearing plate can be quickly restricted by inserting the locking plate into the locking hole.

[0025] Optionally, the locking member further includes a stop portion and a threaded portion, the threaded portion being rotatably connected to the stop portion, the stop portion having a first positioning tooth distributed thereon, and the locking plate having a second positioning tooth distributed thereon; the threaded portion moves threadedly on the support plate to drive the stop portion to move within the support plate, so that the stop portion can move until the first positioning tooth and the second positioning tooth engage.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the threaded movement of the threaded part on the bearing plate drives the movement of the anti-slip part, so that the anti-slip part engages with the locking plate, thereby further restricting the movement of the locking plate relative to the bearing plate, and thus further locking the clamping plate.

[0027] Optionally, the locking plate has a first inclined surface, the immersion tank has a movable push seat at the feed inlet, and the immersion tank is equipped with a control component for driving the push seat to move, so that when the push seat moves, it pushes the locking plate in the direction of disengaging from the bearing plate by abutting against the guide inclined surface.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the control component controls the push seat to cooperate with the first inclined surface, pushing the locking plate away from the bearing plate, so as to assist the staff in separating the locking plate from the bearing plate.

[0029] Optionally, the movable seat has a guide plate with a second inclined surface, and the push seat abuts against the second inclined surface so that when the push seat moves, it can push the guide plate away from the support plate.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooperation between the guide plate and the push seat further assists the locking plate in disengaging from the carrier plate. Furthermore, when the locking plate needs to engage with the locking hole, the moving seat can be pushed away from the carrier plate first, so that the clamping plate can be rotated until the locking plate is aligned with the locking hole.

[0031] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] The tiles are held by a clamping component, and the conveyor chain moves the clamping component into the soaking tank for immersion. Dust on the tiles falls into the water in the soaking tank during the movement. The power source drives the water flow to circulate, so that the water is cleaned by the adsorption component when it flows through the circulation pipe, thereby reducing the number of water changes, making full use of water resources and reducing water waste.

Detailed Implementation

[0044] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-10 This application will be described in further detail.

[0045] This application discloses a water-saving ceramic tile soaking device. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The water-saving ceramic tile soaking device includes a soaking tank 1, a conveyor chain 3, a clamping assembly 4, a driving assembly 7, and a cleaning assembly 8. The conveyor chain 3 conveys ceramic tiles into the soaking tank 1. The driving assembly 7 is installed on the soaking tank 1 to drive the conveyor chain 3 for conveying. The clamping assembly 4 is used to clamp ceramic tiles and is connected to the conveyor chain 3 to move together with the conveyor chain 3. The cleaning assembly 8 is set on the soaking tank 1 to remove and adsorb impurities in the soaking tank 1.

[0046] The immersion tank 1 is a square tank with its opening facing upwards. The upper opening of the immersion tank 1 forms a feed inlet 2, and the immersion tank 1 is filled with clean water. Multiple support legs 24 are fixed to the bottom surface of the immersion tank 1. In other embodiments, casters with brakes can be installed on the bottom of the support legs 24 to move the immersion tank 1.

[0047] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3Multiple sets of impurity removal components 8 are evenly spaced along the length of the immersion tank 1. Each set of impurity removal components 8 includes a circulation pipe 81, a power source 82, and an adsorption element 83. The circulation pipe 81 is installed outside the immersion tank 1, and its two ends, which are far apart from each other, are connected to the bottom and top of the immersion tank 1, respectively. The power source 82 is a water pump installed on the circulation pipe 81. The water pump is also installed on the outer wall of the immersion tank 1, and it provides power to the circulation pipe 81 so that the water in the immersion tank 1 is drawn from the bottom of the immersion tank 1 into the circulation pipe 81, and then input into the immersion tank 1 from the top of the circulation pipe 81. In this embodiment, the adsorption element 83 is an activated carbon pack installed inside the circulation pipe 81 to adsorb dust and impurities in the water. In other embodiments, the adsorption element 83 can also be other substances with adsorption functions.

[0048] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 Two conveyor chains 3 are installed within the immersion tank 1, with each chain conveying along the inner walls of the tank at opposite ends. The conveyor chains 3 are chain-like. The drive assembly 7 includes sprockets 71 and a rotating motor 72. Each conveyor chain 3 engages with four sprockets 71 arranged in a square pattern, allowing the conveyor chain 3 to move along this square direction. The two upper sprockets 71 are located closer to the feed inlet 2. The rotating motor 72 is mounted on the outer wall of the immersion tank 1 and coaxially connected to one of the two upper sprockets 71, providing rotational power. This allows the conveyor chains 3 to circulate within the immersion tank 1, with the water level in the tank 1 lower than the lowest point of the two upper sprockets 71. The two conveyor chains 3 move synchronously and in the same direction under the power of the drive assembly 7.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The clamping component 4 is located between two conveyor chains 3. Multiple sets of clamping components 4 are arranged along the length of the conveyor chain 3, and each set of clamping components 4 does not interfere with each other. When the conveyor chain 3 is conveying, it drives the clamping components 4 to move together.

[0050] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 Specifically, each clamping assembly 4 includes a base 41, a support plate 42, and a clamping plate 43. Both the support plate 42 and the clamping plate 43 have a square mesh structure, and the mesh openings of the support plate 42 and the clamping plate 43 form water passage holes 6. The support plate 42 is connected between two conveyor chains 3, and a recess 13 for placing tiles is opened on one side of the support plate 42. When the tile is placed in the recess 13, the side of the tile facing away from the bottom surface of the recess 13 extends beyond the upper surface of the clamping plate 43.

[0051] The base 41 is a square block and is fixed to one side of the support plate 42. The bottom surface of the base 41 is flush with the bottom surface of the support plate 42. The upper end of the base 41 extends out of the upper surface of the support plate 42 along a direction perpendicular to the plate surface. Each support plate 42 corresponds to two bases 41, and the two bases 41 are located at opposite ends on the same side of the support plate. A clamping plate 43 is located between the two bases 41, and a mounting bracket 14 is provided between the clamping plate 43 and the bases 41 to allow the clamping plate 43 to move along the length of the bases 41 between the two bases 41, thereby causing the clamping plate 43 to move closer to or away from the support plate 42.

[0052] Reference Figure 8 The base 41 has a guide member 5 connected to the mounting bracket 14. The guide member 5 gives the mounting bracket 14 a tendency to move towards the support plate 42, so that after the tile is placed in the sink 13, the guide member 5 drives the mounting bracket 14 and the clamping plate 43 to move towards the support plate 42, so that the tile is clamped between the clamping plate 43 and the support plate 42.

[0053] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 Multiple clamping components 4 are evenly spaced on the conveyor chain 3, and the rotating motor 72 drives the conveyor chain 3 to move at a fixed distance. When the conveyor chain 3 moves a distance equal to the distance between two adjacent clamping components 4, the rotating motor 72 stops moving. Figure 6 At this time, one of the clamping components 4 is located at the feed inlet 2. The clamping component 4 at the feed inlet 2 extends horizontally along the surface of the support plate 42, and the support plate 42 is located below the clamping plate 43. The operator places the tile between the support plate 42 and the clamping plate 43 through the feed inlet 2 to perform the loading operation. Then, the rotating motor 72 is started to drive the next clamping component 4 to move to the feed inlet 2. After loading, the clamping component 4 moves the tile into the water for soaking. The dust on the surface of the tile is washed by the water flow during the movement of the tile and is absorbed into the activated carbon pack in the circulation pipe 81.

[0054] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 The mounting bracket 14 includes a movable seat 141 and a mounting shaft 142. The movable seat 141 has a block-shaped structure, with one end extending into the base 41 and sliding along the length of the base 41. The base 41 has a sliding groove 25 for the movable seat 141 to move, and the sliding groove 25 is formed on the opposite side of the two bases 41. The other end of the movable seat 141 extends out of the base 41 from the sliding groove 25 and extends between the two opposite bases 41. The mounting shaft 142 is connected between the movable seats 141 of the two opposite bases 41. One end of the clamping plate 43 is fixedly sleeved on the mounting shaft 142, so that the movement of the mounting shaft 142 drives the clamping plate 43 to move together.

[0055] The guide element 5 is a spring installed in the sliding groove 25. The two opposite ends of the spring are connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 25 and the moving seat 141, respectively, so as to give the moving seat 141 a tendency to move towards the bearing plate 42.

[0056] Furthermore, the mounting shaft 142 is rotatably connected to the movable seat 141 via a bearing. The rotation of the mounting shaft 142 causes the clamping plate 43 to rotate together, allowing the clamping plate 43 to be flipped, thereby facilitating the placement of the tile between the clamping plate 43 and the support plate 42. A locking element 15 is provided between the support plate 42 and the clamping plate 43, which restricts the rotation of the clamping plate 43 when it clamps the tile.

[0057] Reference Figure 7 The locking component 15 includes a locking plate 151, which is fixed to the side of the clamping plate 43 away from the mounting shaft 142. The surface of the locking plate 151 is perpendicular to the surface of the clamping plate 43. The side of the bearing plate 42 away from the base 41 has a locking hole 16 for the locking plate 151 to pass through. When the surface of the clamping plate 43 is opposite and parallel to the surface of the bearing plate 42, the locking plate 151 is opposite to the locking hole 16. Under the action of the spring, the clamping plate 43 can drive the locking plate 151 to pass through the bearing plate 42 from the locking hole 16 in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the bearing plate 42, so that the clamping plate 43 and the bearing plate 42 are kept parallel to each other to clamp the tile.

[0058] When the tile needs to be removed, move the clamping plate 43 away from the support plate 42 until the locking plate 151 is disengaged from the support plate 42. Then rotate the clamping plate 43 to flip it over, which exposes the tile so that it can be removed from the support plate 42.

[0059] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 9 Furthermore, the locking component 15 also includes a stop portion 152 and a threaded portion 153. The stop portion 152 has a square block structure, and the threaded portion 153 is stud-shaped. The threaded portion 153 is threadedly connected to the support plate 42. The stop portion 152 slides in a straight line within the support plate 42, and one end of the threaded portion 153 is rotatably connected to the stop portion 152. The support plate 42 has a moving groove 26 for the stop portion 152 to slide, and a threaded hole 27 for the threaded portion 153 to move threadedly. The moving groove 26 connects the locking hole 16 and the threaded hole 27. The threaded movement of the threaded portion 153 on the support plate 42 causes the end of the stop portion 152 away from the threaded portion 153 to enter the locking hole 16 or be stored in the moving groove 26. The end of the threaded portion 153 away from the stop portion 152 has a handle 28 located on the outside of the support plate 42.

[0060] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 10 The anti-shifting part 152 has a first positioning tooth 17 on one end away from the threaded part 153. The first positioning tooth 17 is distributed in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the support plate 42. A second positioning tooth 18 is embedded in the surface of the locking plate 151. When the locking plate 151 is engaged with the locking hole 16, rotating the handle 28 moves the anti-shifting part 152 into the locking hole 16, which allows the first positioning tooth 17 to mesh with the second positioning tooth 18, thereby further restricting the movement of the locking plate 151 and improving the stability of the clamping plate 43 and the support plate 42 in clamping the ceramic tile.

[0061] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 Furthermore, the bottom of the movable seats 141 at both ends of the support plate 42 is connected to the same guide plate 22, and the surface of the guide plate 22 is perpendicular to the surface of the support plate 42. The locking plates 151 have mutually distant ends with a first inclined surface 19 that is mirror-symmetrical along the centerline of the locking plates 151, and the distance between the first inclined surfaces 19 gradually decreases towards the direction away from the clamping plate 43. The guide plates 22 have mutually distant ends with a second inclined surface 23 that is mirror-symmetrical along the centerline of the guide plates 22, and the distance between the second inclined surfaces 23 gradually decreases towards the direction away from the movable seat 141. At the feed inlet 2, both ends of the immersion tank 1 have movable push seats 20, which are used to simultaneously engage with both the first inclined surface 19 and the second inclined surface 23 at the same end.

[0062] The push base 20 has a U-shaped structure and two parallel push rods. A control component 21 for driving the push base 20 to move along the length of the immersion pool 1 is installed on the outer wall of the immersion pool 1. The control component 21 is a cylinder installed outside the immersion pool 1, and the piston rod of the cylinder is connected to the push base 20. When the piston rod of the cylinder retracts, the entire push seat 20 is located outside the immersion pool 1. When the piston rod of the cylinder extends, it drives the two push rods of the push seat 20 to move into the immersion pool 1. The two push rods abut against the first inclined surface 19 and the second inclined surface 23 respectively, so as to push the locking plate 151 and the guide plate 22 upward, so that the bottom of the locking plate 151 is close to the bottom of the bearing plate 42, so that the locking plate 151 is about to be separated from the bearing plate 42. This makes it easier for the operator to quickly move the locking plate 151 at the feed inlet 2 upward and separate it from the bearing plate 42. It also makes it easier for the operator to flip the clamping plate 43 to face the bearing plate 42, so that the locking plate 151 quickly faces the locking hole 16.

[0063] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 Furthermore, to improve the cleaning effect of the tiles in the soaking tank 1, a connecting frame 9 is installed between the support plate 42 and the conveyor chain 3. The support plate 42 is connected to the conveyor chain 3 through the connecting frame 9. The connecting frame 9 includes a connecting seat 91 and a rotating shaft 92. Each connecting frame 9 has two connecting seats 91, which are combined... Figure 4Two connecting seats 91 are respectively fixed to the side of the two conveyor chains 3 facing away from the sprocket 71. The two ends of the rotating shaft 92 are rotatably connected between the two connecting seats 91 through bearings, and the middle part of the rotating shaft 92 forms a plane fixed to the bottom surface of the support plate 42. The extension length of the support plate 42 and the clamping plate 43 is less than the distance between the two conveyor chains 3, so that when the clamping assembly 4 moves in the immersion pool 1, the entire clamping assembly 4 can rotate in the immersion pool 1 through the rotation of the rotating shaft 92 relative to the connecting seats 91, thereby driving the tiles to be stirred in the immersion pool 1, making it easier for dust on the tiles to collide with the water and fall into the water.

[0064] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 To guide the rotation of the clamping assembly 4 in the immersion tank 1, a guide rail 10 is installed inside the immersion tank 1, which mates with the extension direction of the conveyor chain 3. Specifically, recessed grooves 29 for mounting the guide rail 10 are formed on the inner walls at opposite ends of the immersion tank 1. The recessed grooves 29 are located circumferentially outside the conveyor chain 3, and the guide rails 10 are connected end to end within the recessed grooves 29. The extension path of the guide rail 10 is adapted to the extension path of the rotating shaft 92 and the moving conveyor chain 3. The two ends of the rotating shaft 92, which are far apart from each other, extend into the recessed grooves 29 at both ends of the immersion tank 1, and a gear 11 is fixed to the end of the rotating shaft 92 and coaxially sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft. Gears 11 that mesh with the gears 11 are distributed along the extension direction of the guide rail 10.

[0065] When the conveyor chain 3 drives the connecting seat 91 and the rotating shaft 92 to move, the rotating shaft 92 rotates under the meshing action of the gear 11 and the guide rail 10, thereby guiding the rotation of the rotating shaft 92. Adaptively, when the clamping assembly 4 moves to the feed inlet 2, the bottom surface of the bearing plate 42 is positioned between the guide rail 10 and the conveyor chain 3, so that the push seat 20 is located between the guide rail 10 and the conveyor chain 3 when it moves, and is not easily guided to interfere with the guide rail 10 and the conveyor chain 3. Moreover, the plate surface of the bearing plate 42 of the clamping assembly 4 at the feed inlet 2 is on a horizontal plane. In addition, the water level of the soaking pool 1 is lower than the clamping assembly 4 at the feed inlet 2 and the clamping assemblies 4 on both sides adjacent to the feed inlet 2, so that when the clamping assembly 4 is about to reach the side of the feed inlet 2 and stops to hold the tile, it drains water. During the process of the clamping assembly 4 moving to the feed inlet 2, it rotates and splashes water, so that when the clamping assembly 4 moves the tile to the feed inlet 2, the excess water on the surface of the tile is removed.

[0066] The implementation principle of the water-saving tile soaking device in this application embodiment is as follows: Clean water is filled into the soaking tank 1, and then tiles are laid onto the clamping assembly 4 located at the feed inlet 2, so that one layer of tiles is clamped by the bearing plate 42 and the clamping plate 43. Then, the rotating motor 72 is started, causing the conveyor chain 3 to transport the tiles until the next clamping assembly 4 moves to the feed inlet 2. During the movement of the clamping assembly 4 with the conveyor chain 3, it rotates through the cooperation of the guide rail 10 and the gear 11, causing the tiles to be agitated while soaking in the clean water, thus dislodging dust from the tiles into the soaking tank 1. The water in the soaking tank 1 is circulated through the circulation pipe 81 by the water pump, and the water passing through the circulation pipe 81 is cleaned by activated carbon packets. After the tiles have been soaked in the soaking tank 1 for a certain period of time, the clamping assembly 4 with the longest soaking time is moved to the feed inlet 2, allowing the tiles to be unloaded and reloaded onto the same clamping assembly 4. This allows workers to perform loading and unloading operations while laying the tiles.

[0067] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.
